Donald J. Trump is officially set to become the President of the United States. Since announcing his intention to run for the White House on the 16th of June, 2015 to much initial scepticism, Mr Trump’s journey to the Oval Office has been characterised by the rise of the alt right, debate by twitter and a confrontational style that has dumbfounded many analysts leaving political observers and market watchers unsure how the next 4 years will look. Simon was joined in the studio by Professor John Weeks and on the line from New York by Michael Zweig, Professor of Economics, State University of New York, Stoney Brook, & political activist.
